8dpfet today and testing negative

[jessisfun]

I am 8dpfet today and did a hpt, but got one horrible stupid pink line.

I have had 3 rounds of icsi and it was that last round that gave me my beautiful daughter, now 20 months. I thank god every day for her and still can't believe how lucky I am. I just watch her sleep in her cot at night and feel so privileged.

we got one embryo to freeze in that last round (my first go at short protocol and I fully recommend taking dhea for 3 months) and it was transferred last Thursday, 28th Feb. my consultant said it was a beautiful embryo and everyone has been so convinced it would work. official test is Monday 11th, but it should be tomorrow as it was with all my other 3 rounds. I cannot believe I got a negative today. I am so down.

I wanted to share as I have read so many other stories and we go through so much with this fertility game, we need to stick together for support!

I think it might be the end of the road for me, my husband is not keen on another round and there is no guarantee it would work and physically and mentally I am not sure I could cope with my toddler in toe. I just so wanted this 2nd baby x

Hiya,

Its so rubbish isn't it? Tbh I didn't get my bfp til 9dp5dt and even then it was faint, so not quite out yet.

I've just been given the go ahead for our 2nd FET (I have a nearly 12mth old!)...I kept thinking I'd be cool and relaxed now I had one child, but in reality I want it even more than before I had him, as I know what I'll be missing out on. I've started hearing pregnancy announcements from mum friends with babies the same age as mine, and I'm just as upset by them, than before I had my boy. It seems this infertilitycloud never goes away does it?

Wishing you all the luck in the world for that bfp...if it's not to be, then maybe take a break and see how you both feel in a couple of months. He may chance his mind! xxx

oh thank you, that is exactly what i want to hear, it's just so torturous!

I want a graph showing when things can happen so we don't count ourselves out too early, but I might just be prolonging the agony. I need wine, so if negative Sunday it's wine time for me!!

you are so right, now I know the pleasure of a baby, I really want another.

good luck with yours x

8 days seems a bit early. That embryo could have attached a few days later than your previous ones. Try to stay positive. Your not out yet x

thanks Emma, I knew on day 8 with my daughter so was hoping it would be the same even though I know I shouldn't. I think I hit a wall today and cracked. my 4th rodeo and I am so over this crap!

I only had transfer today and am already thinking about peeing on sticks. 2ww crazies get us all x

Hi lovely, hope you're ok. I've had 3 cycles now and each one has tested differently (the 2nd gave me my daughter and the 3rd was a failed FET). I believe the FET can show a little later than a fresh cycle because the thawed embryo can take a little while to catch up with progress compared to a fresh... In which case testing at day 8 is too early. You shouldn't test before day 14 post collection (so if your embryo is a 5day old blastocyst when it was frozen that would be day 9 post transfer... However I'd add a day or two as it's a FET). Best of luck xx

Did someone use utovlanmedicine before ivf treatment?
